It can be hard to cut an Acorn Squash. To make it easier, I take a fork and prick the skin on one side in a crease made by the ribs of the acorn, from the end to the stem.

Microwave the squash for 2 minutes. Use hot pads to remove the squash from the microwave and place on a cutting board. Cut the squash along the line where you pricked it with the fork. Now you are ready to make my Acorn Squash recipe that I will be posting on Friday.

Pour over potatoes. Bake one hour, until golden brown. If the potatoes are not tender after an hour, cover with aluminum foil and bake an additional 15 to 20 minutes.

I finally feel well enough to get back to blogging. Who knew a small cut on my foot and walking in the ocean in South Africa would cause me so much trouble. Outside of that, I am in great health and glad to be getting back to my normal schedule.
